Staff has raised $1,049,787 in state and federal grants for the construction of
the Center. The fund raising campaign has raised approximately $42q,000 in cash
and pledges. These monies will be deposited in the General Fund to off-set the
appropriation. An additional $250,000 will be appropriated from the Redevelopment
